DDD Transition Workshops & Speaking Engagements

Is your school, organization, or family support group helping individuals prepare for life after high school? DS&A offers informative workshops to guide families through the transition from school-based services into New Jersey’s Division of Developmental Disabilities (DDD).

Our Roadmap to DDD sessions are designed to simplify a complex process. We guide families through what to expect when a child approaches age 18, including:

  • Understanding DDD eligibility and application steps
  • Key transition timelines and age-based milestones
  • Available adult services and how to access them
  • Preparing for a smooth handoff from school supports to state-funded services

These sessions are ideal for IEP nights, parent support meetings, community programs, and advocacy organizations looking to empower families with actionable guidance.
